12 Sonny Bill Williams 5Was very good until receiving yellow card for batting ball out of play league-style, an act followed by ref Angus Gardner's own brain explosion in awarding a penalty try.

11 Rieko Ioane 7Excellent first half and little sign of the illness which kept him confined to his hotel room recently. Pace and vision had French stretched initially but a few mistakes after break.

10 Beauden Barrett 7A tough one to score because Barrett was superb in first half with his passing game in particular but looked rattled at times in second. Flawless goalkicking gets him an extra point.

5 Sam Whitelock 6Frustration was clear in second half. A few lineout wobbles.

4 Luke Romano 6Decent effort - left field to get ear patched up. A couple of strong carries.

3 Nepo Laulala 6Kept up his side of the scrum while adding value around pitch.

2 Dane Coles 8Lovely outside-in running line for try from Barrett's pace. Lively as usual but a knee injury forced him off after 24 minutes.

1 Kane Hames 6Won a couple of front row battles but lost a couple too. Gave Rabah Slimani an earful after France No3 sinbinned.

Reserves:16 Codie Taylor 6 - A couple of good carries which showed his pace and power17 Wyatt Crockett 5 - On for Hames and scrum shambles led to one or two harsh penalties from ref Gardner. 18 Ofa Tu'ungafasi 5 - On for Laulala and gave away penalty for ruck flop19 Scott Barrett 6 - Good carries when coming on for Romano as blood replacement. Came on in last 15 minutes as permanent sub20 Matt Todd 5 - Helped Naholo with important turnover in own red zone. Solid but part of a team under pressure in second half. 21 TJ Perenara 5 Played last 11 minutes22 Lima Sopoaga 5 On for McKenzie at end. Not enough time to express himself.23 Anton Lienert-Brown 6 Couple of nice touches when he came on for Crotty for last 15 minutes. Nice pass for Naholo's second try.

France:15 Nans Ducuing 7Horror drop which led to Cane's try but increasingly influential in second half. Nice pass for Thomas' try.
